Weren't there some talk about Nolan maybe gradually moving the Failclowns' D from a 4-3 to a 3-4 within the span of couple of season?

If so, Franklin might be a good fit for them since he would be most effective as a 3-4 NT, a position where his run stopping ability would essentially be what would be asked of him.

Failclowns have had their own share of problems with the pass rush, and if Franklin performs this coming season like he did the past season with the Saints - he won't give them any improvements in the pass rush.
